Even though the name's obvious, I like the sound of it.

 

[Dene]

Awesome! I won't be able to make it but I hope everything goes well.

 

[OLLiver]

Argh can't make it either, I will have to wait for nationals

 

[tx789]

I should be able to make it. It's good to finally see some news of it.

 

[CyanSandwich]

I'm getting "One or more of the given values is invalid." (below the events, above "possible events") when I try to register.

Could it be because skewb is on the events list, but not on the competitors table?

 

[SixSidedCube]

I may be able to make it! I would only compete in 3x3 and OH though, I'd judge/scramble/run the rest of the time.

Also, if I were to arrive in Wellington on Sunday morning, would anyone be able to pick me up from the Airport? I would arrive around 8.50am (going from Hamilton - Wellington flights). I live in Rotorua now. Or even pick me up on the way through?

Fixed.

Cool, registered.

Aaaah I'm jealous! Come on, you guys have to do bigbld for Mr Hardwick!

Hahahaha, I would be happy to judge Chris for those events, during an event he's not doing? Up to David and Josh to decide though!

Dene, y u no come Go make some $$ and fly

 

[cmhardw]

Katie and I are excited to be here, and to be able to go to a competition! I would definitely be happy to do some big BLD, but I understand if the schedule doesn't allow for it.

New Zealand is wonderful, we've doing some tramping and traveling around on the north island, then a week on the south island next week. Looking forward to it!

 

[cmhardw]

Will there be puzzles for sale at the competition? Also, is there a good cubing store for purchasing puzzles in New Zealand?

--edit--
I just found
http://www.speedcube.com.au/

 

[CyanSandwich]

Yeah http://www.speedcube.com.au/ is the best for quick delivery. But the popular stores like lightake, fasttech, cubezz etc are cheaper.

Also, I've been allowed to do mbld and either 4 or 5bld at the last 3 competitions. No guarantees here, but you should be able to do at least one bigbld.

 

[SixSidedCube]

Glad to have you two here, Chris! Have you been to Rotorua yet?

Yeah, the Aussie site you found would be the nearest to NZ, we have no actual dedicated stores in NZ, just yet.

And yeah, like Tom (CyanSandwich) said above, he's been permitted to do mbld and a 4-5 bld in the past, either during lunch break, or during events that he didn't participate in.

Like I also said, I'd be happy to judge you during those events, if others are busy! I'm only competing in 2 events, then helping out with everything else!

Lol there will be like 10 people there. I'm sure you've had some of those types of comps in the past.

We might get 20. That's was around the size of the last wellington comp. There'll be more than 10 though.

Yeah, hope we get around 20!!
